we have carefully studidd Buckalew's de
fence of himself, and substantially stated
it as found in those organs, which claim
to be of the Buckalcw persuasion in this
campaign. ,
One of Mr. IJuckulew'g first ahd
greatest cares is to remove (ha ' damag
ing effect of his intercourse with these
men, henco he is interested in glossing
the whole matter over. Mr. Buckalcw as a
witness in his own bohalf, is not odIv di.
rectly, but intensely intonated in giving
the most favornbla version possible so fa
as he is concerned, while on the other
hand Holoomb simply makes a confiden
tial statement, to hi superior with no in
ducement to give any other than a plain
unvarnished statement of events as they
transpired. He frankly states the pros'
pects of the business h and his coadju
tors had on hand, to wit; burning the
principle cities of the loyal States, spread
yellow fever and other contagious dc
seascs over the whole north, release
thoso Rebels soldiers who had been
captured and were then held as prisoners
of war at Elmyra, Johnson Island. Camp
Douglas at Chicago and other points ;
incite insurrection and Rebellion against
the government in its efforts to fill up
the depleted ranks of its armies, by en
fnrcninir wholesome drafting laws,
JLECTION PROCLAMATION.
WhereaS, in and by the 13th section
of the Act of General Assembly of Penn
sylvania, passed July 2d 1SC1), entitled.
"An art relating to the Elections of the
Commonwealth." It is enjoined on the
Sheriff of every county to give notice of
such elections to be held, and to enum
erate in such notice what officers are to
be elected, in pursuance thereof, I. I).
(J. Oyster, High emeriti of the county
of Elk, do thereforo make known and
give this public notice to the electors of
said county of Elk, that a general elec

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8th
(it being the second Tuesday of the

One person for Governor.

Three persons for Congressmen at

said, shall be entitled to vote, although
they have not paid taxes.
Wherea's, The Fifteenth Amend

the United States shall not be denied 07
abridged by the United States on ac
count of race, color, or previous condi

Sec. 2. Tnat Concress shall have
power to enforce this article by appropri

Awt whereas, The Congress ot the
United States, ou the a 1st 5t March
1870, passed an act entitled, "An act
to enforce the right of citizens of the
United States to Vote in tne scleral
States of the Uniou, tnd lor other
purposes," the first and second sections
of which aro as follows!
Be it enacted, That all citizens
of the Unl ed Slates who are or

of
Who Shall he Governor of Pennsylvania.
There is now no necessity to hesitate
for a moment as to the choice between
the candidates for the .Gubernatorial
office in the State of Pennsylvania.
Tlio two candidates are known to the
people by their deeds. The one takes
the field against armed traitors, Rebels
against the Government and laws of our
country, the other goes skulking away
to the Dominion of Canada to counsel
with Tirhels in stiecial commission to
burn the cities of loyal states, to Gist rib
ute contagious deseases over the land
to release prisoners of war and turn
them loose to murder the wives and
little ones of the men who were on duty
in posts of peril and danger ; to incite
insurrection in the Northern. Western
and North Western states, by giving
encouragement to the "sons of Liberty,"
and "Kniehts of the Golden circle"
whose avowed purpose was the over
throw of the Governmeut of the United
States. Our Lib-Rep-Dem friends at
the dcvekipement of Buckalew's compli
city with the rebel commissioners pooh
ed at tho idea and with, their old wcap-
nn bluff endeavored to avoid it. But
that, they soon found would not "work,
and they then put their wits to work to
discover soma Way for their cindidatc
to escape the effect of his coalition with
T?pbels. And first it was said that he
was one of a senatorial committee to
find out how the Canadian government
dealt with the Indians within the do
minion ; but then this was too thin for
the puipose intended, and the rottenness
of the excuse was to apparant, and some
other reason must be given ; and the
second reason formed was that the Sena
tor from Pennsylvania was travelling
with his wife for her health, and took
the Canada side of the Niagra in his
our for the benefit of his wile's health.
Why not stop on the American side ?
Was not the atmospher just as salub-
rious, and the association just a good
as on tbe Canada side: Xo, there was
a certain congeniality over there that
did not exist here for men of the Buck
alew grade of Loyalty to, and love for
the government. But this excuse was
a little too much on the shody order
even for Lib-Rep-Dcms, and they mast
needs "Ga fa upo anither plan," and
the bright idea loomed up that Ilolcomb
said he saw Mr. Buckalcw, but did not
say that he and Buckalcw had spoken
with each other. But Buckalew must
have forgotten that his friends were try.
ing to get him out of his Rebel commiss
ioner difficulty, and admits that he and
Ilolcomb did have a talk about the pros.
pect of the government raising the 500-
000 men then called for, and that he
assured Ilolcomb they would be raised
and that then they eepcrated. Mr.
Buckalew tells us that he undertook to
obey a resolution of the United States
Senate, of which he was then a member
from Pennsylvania, ordering himself and
Senators Harlcara, and Doolittle to go to
Canada and learn what they might of
the Indian policy of that Government
and report. Harlan and Doolittle in
vited Buckalew to join them at Niagra
and proceed to the business of their
commission, but when he got there his
colleagues had been there and had gone
on to perform the duty assigned them,
while United States Senator Buckalew
went over to the Canada side to counsel
with those with whom he was in full
sympathy, to wit messrs Saunders,
Thompson, Holcomb and Clay. Now
Mr.
de
talk the
the
Thompson confirms this statement
Holenmb, and among the persons seen
and conversed with by Holcomb on these
to them important measures was Charles
R. Buckalew.
Ilolcomb is confirmed in this by
Buckalew who affirms, in his own
fence that he and Jloleonib did
about the probabilities of success on
part of the Government in raising
500,000 men called for. Buckalew
avoids telling us in his defence how this
conversation was brought about, but
Holcomb tells his chief, in recounting
the business of his sojourn on the Cana
da side of Niagra Falls, as above stated
But Buckalew further confirms Ilolcomb
as president of the "Fishing Crectc con
feleraey," as presideut of the "nb
Mountain campmeeting" of fire in the
rear copperhead Democrats, in the votes
given by him against the measures of
the Government to suppress Rebellion,
nnd forever recorded against him in tha
archives of our nation. Buckalew has
left recorded on the Journal of the Uni
ted States Senate, his vote agaiosl the
amendment to onr constitution by which
slavery was aholishod against the repeal
of that most infamous of all the laws
ever enacted by the congress of the Uni
tod States, the fugitive slave law. He
VOtfl'l flrainst Ko rctnlO'.'VtriPTlt of tl
Freedman's Bureau, he voted against
allowing negroes lo become citizens of
the United States, and in favor of a con
stitutional amendment forever prohibit
ing th in from becoming citizens. He
was opposed to the equality of nil men
before the law, and so voted. He was
opposed to paying bounties to soldiers,
and so ri corded his vote. He was op
posed to paying black soldiers the same
wages paid to whites and so voted.
was opposed to the conscription act
voted "no" on the passage of the
lie voted against the payment of
men called into service to defend
state against Lee's invading host, known
as the "emergency men". lie was in
favor of paying Rebel slaves owners for
the slaves drafted or enlisted into the
armies of the I nitco Mates. Ihus we
mifcht trace his record while United
States Senator and prove that in evefy
instance by speech and vote he opposed
whatever favored his country, or ins
country's soldiers iu the field, or the
family of the soldier at home. In every
thing uutavorable to the Government or
its soldiers, by speech and vote he - fa
vored.
Yet he now asks the Pennsylvania
soidiers, and soldiers friends to elevate
him to the chief Magistracy of the

Commenting ou the silly charge of the
Democratic papers that Senator Willson
was a Kuow-Nothing, the Boston Pilot-
excellent authority among the Catho
lics, sayr: ''The editor has been able to
find nothing to justifiy the accusation,
except the fact that Mr. Wilson received
a few votes for Governor in the Know-
Nothiog convention, and decl'med the
nomination. The Pikt arrives at this
conclusion: If Mr. Wilson uttered these
things in 1854 the Pilot did not say any
thing about it, which surprises us. We
arc, therefore, inclined to believe wheth
er he was a Know-Nothing or not, that
these alleged quotations aro manufactur
ed as campaign documents, and unusual
Iy dirty campaign ducuments at that."
